Deep sequencing of small RNA repertoires in mice reveals metabolic disorders-associated hepatic miRNAs.

Obesity and associated metabolic disorders contribute importantly to the metabolic syndrome. On the other hand, microRNAs (miRNAs) are a class of small non-coding RNAs that repress target gene expression by inducing mRNA degradation and/or translation repression. Dysregulation of specific miRNAs in...
